RÉSUMÉ
Objective:To evaluate the cancer detection rate in patients with multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) PI-RADS 1-2 prior to initial biopsy, and analyze the risk factors of prostate cancer.Methods:A total of 196 patients undergoing initial prostate biopsy between July 2011 and June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. According to ESUR PI-RADS system, the patients’ PI-RADS score was 1 and 2, with the mean age of 66.6±9.0 years, and the median PSA 7.44 ng/ml. Twenty-eight patients were enrolled with PSA<4 ng/ml but with abnormal directeral rectun examination. The rest 168 patients were enrolled with elevated PSA. According to the Epstein prostate risk classification criteria, clinically insignificant prostate cancer was defined as: PSA density ≤0.15 ng/ml 2, Gleason score≤6, less than 3 positive needles, <50% puncture length. If any of the above is not met, the diagnosis should be clinically significant prostate cancer(CsPCa). T test or Mann-Whitney U test were used for comparison between groups. Risk factors for diagnosis of prostate cancer and CsPCa were analyzed by chi square test(or Fisher’s exact probability method) and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:There were 42(21.4%) patients diagnosed with prostate cancer, 30(15.3%)patients were CsPCa. The negative predictive value of mpMRI was 78.6%(154/196)for prostate cancer overall, and 84.7%(166/196)for CsPCa. Patients with higher age and PSA density were associated with higher possibility of prostate cancer. Higher age, PSA level, PSA density, and lower PSA ratio were associated with higher possibility of CsPCa. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PSA density>0.15 ng/ml 2( OR=2.94, 95% CI 1.45-5.95) was independent risk factor of prostate cancer.Ages over 70 years( OR=2.49, 95% CI 1.22-5.07), PSA ratio<0.2( OR=3.70, 95% CI 1.25-11.23), PSA density>0.15 ng/ml 2( OR=5.77, 95% CI 1.96-16.96) were independent risk factors of CsPCa ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The detection rate of prostate cancer was 21.4% in patients with elevated PSA or abnormal digital prostate examination but with PI-RADS score of 1-2. Higher age and PSA density were associated with higher risk of prostate cancer. The detection rate of CsPCa was 15.3%. Ages over 70 years, PSA ratio<0.2, PSA density>0.15 ng/ml 2 were independent risk factors of CsPCa.

Objective:To analyze the prognosis of patients with positive resection margin after radical prostatectomy, as well as the prostate-specific antigen (PSA)level and risk factors for PSA progression.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the data of 141 patients with pathologically diagnosed prostate cancer who underwent RP from May 2012 to August 2020 in Beijing Hospital. The mean age was (67.4±6.7)years, the preoperative median PSA was 9.6 (1.4-152.8) ng/ ml and the median follow-up time was 56 months. Postoperative pathology was T 2 stage 74 (52.5%), T 3 stage 63 (44.7%), T 4 stage 4 (2.8%). Biochemical recurrence after radical resection was defined as PSA rose to more than 0.2 ng/ml and showed an upward trend after two consecutive follow-ups. In this study, serum PSA ≥ 0.1 ng/ml without biochemical recurrence after radical operation was defined as PSA progression. The PSA level, risk factors of PSA progression and prognosis of patients with positive resection margin were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between age, preoperative PSA level, pathological stage (pT), ISUP classification, surgical approach, lymph node dissection, single/multiple positive margins and PSA progression. Results:The median follow-up of 141 patients was 52 months(1-104 months). There were 69 (48.9%) patients in the PSA progression group and 72 (51.1%) patients in the non PSA progression group. In the PSA progression group, 13 (18.8%) patients did not receive treatment and 8 (61.5%) patients had biochemical recurrence. 4 (5.8%) patients received radiotherapy alone, and 2 (50.0%) patients had biochemical recurrence. 52 (75.4%) patients received endocrine therapy or endocrine therapy combined with radiotherapy, and 5 (9.6%) patients developed castration resistance. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed preoperative PSA ( HR=1.015, 95% CI 1.005-1.025, P =0.004), ISUP grade and group ( HR=1.351, 95% CI 1.091-1.673, P =0.006), surgical method ( HR=2.233, 95% CI 1.141-4.370, P =0.019) was correlated with PSA progression. Conclusions:The incidence of surgical positive margin is high after RP. Nearly half of the patients with surgical positive margin developed a PSA progression status. Preoperative PSA, ISUP grade group, and the surgical approach are risk factors for PSA progression in patients with positive surgical margins. Patients with these risk factors should be monitored more closely and treated more aggressively.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency and safety of extraperitoneal laparoscopic radi-cal prostatectomy for the treatment of localized prostate cancer. Methods Fifteen localized prostate cancer patients were treated with extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. The mean pre-op-erative PSA was 8.1 ng/ml and prostate biopsy pathological Gleason score was 5.7±1.3. The Beijing Hospital Technique characterized by cutting directly into linea alba abdominis was used to establish the extraperitoneal space. Harmonic scrapple was used in dissection and haemostasis during the proce-dure. This technique was evaluated in respects of operating time, estimated blood loss, complications during surgery, postoperative complications, post-operative pain score (NRS), catheterization time, length of hospital stay, pathological results and post-operative PSA. Results All the surgeries had been completed successfully except 1 case converted to open surgery. The average operation time was (316±74)min, the average estimated blood loss was (4084±362)m1. There were 5 cases accepted blood transfusion. No rectal or ureteral injury happened during operation. The NRS at post-operative day 1 and day 2 were 2.3 and 1.4. The average length of hospital stay was (19.5±4.9)d. The cathe-terization time was (14.1±2.9)d. There were 2 cases (13%) with positive surgical margins. No case was found having lymph node metastasis. During the 1-12 month follow up, 10 cases (67%) were continence. PSA in 12 cases was lower than 0.2 ng/ml. Conclusion Extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy is feasible and safe in the treatment of localized prostate cancer.

Objective To improve the finding of prostate cancer (PCa) and prevent the unnecessary biopsies, we select proper patients for biopsy and analyze. Methods The retrospective study included 258 patients who were biopsied for suspected early PCa. Then we analyse how the age, prostate volume, PSA, transrectal ultrasound sonography (TRUS) and MRI affect the finding of prostate cancer. Results Altogether 146 BPH and 112 prostate cancer by biopsy were detected. Positive ratio of biopsy was increased with the age or PSA increases but has no relationship with the prostate volume. Combination with digital rectal examination, PSA and TRUS, the positive ratio was improved and unecessary biopsies were avoided. The detective rate reached 84.6% when all of these three parameters were positive. The sensitivity of MRI was 98.3% but specificity was only 22.4%. The total efficacy was 21.8%. Conclusions The effect of DRE, PSA and TRUS in the screening of prostate cancer should be emphasized. However, importance of MRI is limited for the early detection of PCa.
